Skill level: Advanced

Part 1: On the first day, you will learn the basics of working with the IBM Rational modeling platform. You will work with model templates, create UML diagrams, become familiar with team development support, and be introduced to the available product integrations. In addition, you will learn about leveraging transformations and patterns as you design solutions.

Part 2: Using IBM Rational Software Architect during the next four days, you will learn the basics of designing and creating pattern implementations and related artifacts. This will include learning how to design and create UML Patterns, Model to Model Transformations, and Model to Text Transformations.

Web Based Training (WBT):

IBM Rational WBT courses provide a training advantage for you, helping you get up to speed on Rational tools and best practices. Reinforce your learning by taking the courses you need, at your convenience, and at your own pace. In addition, use the self-assessments to measure your progress.

This boot camp is a combination of the following three courses:

	RD561: DEV394 Essentials of IBM Rational Software Modeler v7.0, (1 day)
	RD801: DEV498 Pattern Implementation Workshop with IBM Rational Software Architect, (4 days)
